A Series of Fortunate Events!

The time for the Manatee Class BBQ on Friday, June 18th has been changed to 4:30.

This is a fortunate change of events because now we can enjoy dinner in the cabana, along with a spectacular sunset, and evening campfire under tiki torches. Bring the smores and Jiffy Pop! The beach will be our playground!!

We are sorry for the inconvenience this schedule change may cause, but this later time allows additional parents to attend, and the opportunity for a more exciting celebration. 

Look for a hard copy (green paper) of directions and a map tomorrow (Wednesday) in your child's Go-Home envelope.

If you are available to arrive early to help set up, please call or email Wanda.

Field Day - Thank you to all the parents that volunteered today for Field Day! We appreciate your time and dedication. 

Countdown . . . 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1!

Here it is - the final week of school!  Just a few reminders and details to keep you informed:

Tuesday is Field Day and the children will be outside for most of the day.  They will all have Manatee t-shirts for the event.  You can send an extra change of clothes and shoes in case they decide to participate in the water games.  We also recommend sun screen if your child burns easily, since the weather forecast is for sun. Yahoo! 

There will be barbequed hamburgers and watermelon for lunch.  The lunch will be charged to student's lunch account.  If you are going to be here for lunch and would like to purchase a hamburger, please let us know.  You can send in $3.00, or bring it along with you.  If your child does not like hamburgers, please send in a sack lunch.  We will be eating lunch in the classroom.

Thursday is our End-of-Year Party, from 1:30 - 3:30.  We will be honoring each child in a special way, and there will be a slide show.  Please come if you are able.  It's a fun way to end the year.


Check out the manatees singing "Try", a song about perseverence, on the video below. 
The students love this song, and they wanted to sing it for you!
